IBM Mainframe - Batch Job to Generate Data Set List?:

Use command: LIST KEEP and you can rename the dataset

and LIST DELETE to delete it immediately :-)

Thanks much... much better than logging off, sure! If anyone can tell me
where to find out about batch manipulation, though, I'd still greatly
appreciate it.

While I have not done this for a very long time, I know you can write
REXX commands, called by ISPF Edit, that will execute from the Edit
Command Line. If you execute ISPF Edit as a batch operation, you should
be able to run these same commands in that environment. Certainly, you
do have to carefully keep track of the cursor position so the commands
will do what you expect. And, that is not always easy. But, should
work if your processing is not too complex.

Again, I have not done this for a long time [about 13 years] but I
believe it should be possible.

[DIALECT HUMOR ALERT!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!]

Reminds me of the Old Southern Joke, usually told by an Old Southern Man:
'I was walkin' thru the town t'other day an' I saw a boy, settin' on the
curb, cryin' and cryin', jes' cryin' his heart out. I asks him, 'What's
the matter, son?', an' he gits his breath, a-heavin' an' sobbin', an says
'I'm sad, Mister.' I says 'Well, ain't much I seen a boy weep like that
fer bein' happy, what're y'sad about?'

'He says 'I'm sad b'cause I cain't do what th' big boys do.'... an' I
thought about it fer a minute an' then I set m'self right down next t'him
an' started cryin', too.'
